I just love that first pic, absolutely gorgeous. 8) 8) 8) I think there's going to be a mass assimilation when everyone sees that. :wink:

Yeah.....I was tempted to copy and paste the cheni over to close to that Anubias leaf. It would have made a letter 'A' out of fish then :wink:

Then the title could have been "...and tomorrow we do B" :D
